Project Highlights
Assessment and Comparison of Advanced Driver Assistance System Safety Testing Procedures
Currently, there is no existing single standard when it comes to ADAS and crash avoidance testing procedures, which means each testing program that assesses and rates advanced safety systems may have its own testing and rating process. As such, the goal of this project was to examine differences between ADAS test procedures conducted by test programs across the globe.
A Pilot Sentinel Surveillance System for Drug Use by Drivers in Crashes: Lessons Learned and Recommendations
In collaboration with the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, VTTI developed and implemented a pilot sentinel surveillance system at two Level I trauma centers: one in Roanoke, VA, and the other in Winston-Salem, NC.
Impact of Automated Vehicle External Communication on Other Road User Behavior
Drivers and construction workers have always communicated with each other through various methods such as hand gestures and eye contact. With the advent of highly automated vehicles (HAVs) on the horizon, the transportation industry is interested in the ability of these vehicles to communicate their intent to other road users.
The Impact of C-V2X on Transportation System Efficiency, Safety, Energy, and Environment
The objective of this project is to assess the environmental effects of a wide deployment of C-V2X and to evaluate the potential safety effects of C-V2X on various traffic participants.
A Data-Driven Approach to the Development and Evaluation of Acoustic Electric Vehicle Alerting Systems for Vision-Impaired Pedestrians
While quiet vehicles may seem to be desirable, their lack of noise can pose a danger to pedestrians.
Roadside Truck Placard Reader for Advance Notice and Response at Safety-Critical Facilities
This project is analyzing the performance of an Automated Placard Reader System (APRS) under real-world operating scenarios.
